    This item has literally made my home livable again. I know I'm exaggerating but the signal was horrible before and this fixed it.

    The Device came in a beautiful package, the package itself looks expensive and the 3 node routers neatly arranged with minimal paperwork.

    I have a 5000 square-foot home and the modem with Cox would not reach the theater room. So I invested in these and they have been remarkable.

    I replaced an AC router and a secondary. The mesh system is superior to what I had. During the setup, it analyzes the best spot for each node. Highly pleased.

    I was pretty stoked to get the Velop system! I've been really excited about mesh wifi and was looking forward to trying it out. We have spots in our house that tend to be hard to get signals. My husband is very big on instruction manuals and we laughed at the single card startup guide that said download the app then follow the instructions. The setup was extremely easy. I did try to open a web interface with my router as that is what I've been used to, but when I did so, it stated that the router can only be accessed by the app. That was a big disappointment. It was until I spent more time in the app. I was able to do everything I needed to including port forwarding, Setting up Static IP addresses is done with a push of a button, so super easy! Blocking access is also easy with parental controls. We no longer have the issues with spottiness we did and coverage is amazing! I have a signal to the corner of my street, 5 houses down! I also love that I can see and control things even if I'm not home! Now for a few cons, Each tower has only two ethernet ports and no USB ports. With the initial tower setup, I plugged in the modem, but only had one port left. I used 3-4 on my previous router. I now have to move my nas to another tower in the house. For an advanced user, the lack of control over DHCP and DNS is a definite downside. Both the 2.4 Ghz and the 5 Ghz now are one network and the Velop chooses how it connects to each device. It tends to prefer strength over speed. During setup, it took a while to add the additional towers to the system but it was easy to do. The system is costly. Determine before purchasing, how many towers you need because they can be purchased individually or in a two pack as well as a 3 pack. Overall, I'm very happy with the Velop system as it does work very well and allows me to make adjustments that fit my needs. Really advanced users will be less happy with some of the restrictions however basic users will love the simplicity, speed and coverage of the Velop system.

    The Linksys system works well. A little tricky to set up, and placement can be important to achieving best results.

    The video is great! Sold on the idea! The reality is that the product is just terrible! The worst product Linksys has ever released! I been using Linksys for over 20 years and I can't believe the pain this product is for everything. I have setup around 3 times. Reset more than 10. Unplug and plugged back in many counts, lost track. Out of the blue it will disconnect and the red light goes on and off. Sometimes you just have to move it a few inches to one side and it will be stable again. For no reason it will disconnect and reconnect on its own. It is not smart at all, it will connect to the furthest node giving you an orange light to connect to the nearest node that will have a blue light. The signal doesn't go through concrete floors maybe plywood and real thin if you are lucky. The node can be sitting almost on top of the other and it will not find it with concrete and tile as floors. The mobile app is a total disaster if you have a mixed Linksys network it will find your router but then it will not find Velop or it finds Velop but not the router. If you change the name or left the default name that will be how it looks in the app even though you had changed the name on the router. I'm just very disappointed with this product and so costly too! $299.99 on sale for 3 bipolar nodes for spotty to none wi-fi.

      Hi, Luis,

      We appreciate your letting us know about your observations with the Linksys Velop. One factor that would help optimize the performance of your device is to make sure that all nodes are running on the latest firmware version. We'd like to have our Escalation Engineers work with you and learn what causes the setback. Please send us an email at LinksysCares@linksys.com with your contact details and the link to this review for our reference.

    Loved that I downloaded the app, and it instructed me how to connect the system. It took a little longer because I had to break the dhcp lease on my former router.
